Class: QgsMeshSpatialIndex¶
- class qgis.core.QgsMeshSpatialIndex¶
Bases:
sip.wrapper
Constructor for
QgsSpatialIndex
. Creates an empty R-tree index.QgsMeshSpatialIndex(mesh:
QgsMesh
, feedback:QgsFeedback
= None, elementType: QgsMesh.ElementType = QgsMesh.ElementType.Face) Constructor - creates R-tree and bulk loads faces or edges from the specified meshNot implemented to construct R-tree for vertices Since QGIS 3.14 possibility to create R-tree for edges
The optional
feedback
object can be used to allow cancellation of bulk face loading. Ownership offeedback
is not transferred, and callers must take care that the lifetime of feedback exceeds that of the spatial index construction.QgsMeshSpatialIndex(other:
QgsMeshSpatialIndex
) Copy constructorA spatial index for
QgsMeshFace
orQgsMeshEdge
objects.QgsMeshSpatialIndex
objects are implicitly shared and can be inexpensively copied.Note
While the underlying libspatialindex is not thread safe on some platforms, the
QgsMeshSpatialIndex
class implements its own locks and accordingly, a singleQgsMeshSpatialIndex
object can safely be used across multiple threadsSee also
Methods
Returns the type of mesh elements that are indexed
Returns a list of face ids with a bounding box which intersects the specified
rectangle
.Returns nearest neighbors to a
point
.- elementType(self) → QgsMesh.ElementType¶
Returns the type of mesh elements that are indexed
New in version 3.14.
- Return type
- intersects(self, rectangle: QgsRectangle) → List[int]¶
Returns a list of face ids with a bounding box which intersects the specified
rectangle
.Note
The intersection test is performed based on the face bounding boxes only, so it is necessary to manually test the returned faces for exact geometry intersection when required.
- Parameters
rectangle (QgsRectangle) –
- Return type
List[int]
- nearestNeighbor(self, point: QgsPointXY, neighbors: int) → List[int]¶
Returns nearest neighbors to a
point
. The number of neighbours returned is specified by theneighbours
argument.Note
The nearest neighbour test is performed based on the face bounding boxes only, so this method is not guaranteed to return the actual closest neighbours.
- Parameters
point (QgsPointXY) –
neighbors (int) –
- Return type
List[int]
